As has happened many times before, heavy rain flooded parts of the Muni Metro system on Saturday, shutting down train service into Saturday evening between Embarcadero and West Portal.
The Muni system often can't handle a modest bit of rainfall, so when you get a torrential downpour as San Francisco did for a few brief periods on Saturday afternoon, the result is total shutdown. There were small floods all over town on Saturday, with a pretty significant one at Market and Church Street that, obviously, impacted the train tunnels below. Also, as SFGate reports, the platform stairs at Van Ness Station turned into a waterfall — so, yes! It was a lot rain in a short period of time
